St John Ambulance


Every year more than 800,000 people learn how to save a life through our training programmes, including hundreds of thousands of young people.

Our volunteers provide first aid in their communities, keeping people safe at events and working alongside the NHS. We also campaign to raise awareness of first aid and directly educate the public. We want everyone to learn first aid so they can be the difference between a life lost and a life saved.
